NIVA Denmark is the name, water is our game

Research, commitment and independence are in our DNA at NIVA Denmark. Our focus is applied research in aquatic ecosystems and evidence-based consultancy. Key research areas include eutrophication, hazardous substances, biodiversity, and ecosystem health as well as the implications of multiple human activities in marine waters and in streams, rivers and lakes.

Around two thirds of our activities are applied research and innovation and one third is projects for government agencies, international organisations and industry.
